SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
IF THE INFORMATION IN THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IS NOT FOLLOWED EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLO-
SION MAY RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAM-
AGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. IMPROPER
INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, ALTERATION,
SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE CAN CAUSE INJURY
OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY OR
EVEN DEATH. PLEASE READ ENTIRE MANUAL
BEFORE YOU INSTALL AND USE YOUR APPLI-
ANCE. THIS APPLIANCE HAS NOT BEEN TESTED
WITH AN UNVENTED GAS LOG SET. TO REDUCE
RISK OF FIRE OR INJURY, DO NOT INSTALL AN
UNVENTED GAS LOG SET INTO THE APPLIANCE.
• This appliance can be very hot when burning.
• Combustible materials such as firewood, wet cloth-
ing, etc. placed too close can catch fire.
• Children and pets must be kept from touching the
appliance when it is hot.
• The chimney must be sound and free of cracks.
Before installing this unit, contact the local building
or fire authority and follow their guidelines.
• Operate only with the door tightly closed.
• Do not use an elevated grate or otherwise raise
the fire.
• At least 14 square inches (90,3 square centime-
ters) of outside air must be admitted to the room or
directly to the unit through a 5" 127mm diameter
pipe. Failure to provide this may starve other fuel
burning appliances from an adequate air supply.
• Make sure not to create negative pressure in the
installation room, e.g. by means of an exhaust fan
or similar mechanical blower, as this could affect
the combustion of the fireplace or increase the
possibility of smoke leakage.
• This appliance is designed to burn natural wood
only. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions
generally result when burning air dried seasoned
hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green
or freshly cut hardwoods.
• Do not burn green or freshly cut wood.
• Do not start a fire with chemicals or fluids such as
gasoline, engine oil, etc.
• Do not burn treated wood, coal, charcoal, colored
paper, cardboard, solvents or garbage.
• Do not let the appliance become hot enough for any
part to glow red.
• KEEP THE STOVE TOP TEMPERATURE BELOW
700°F (371°C). Attempts to achieve heat output
rates that exceed design specifications can result
in steel distortion and damage.
WARNING
HOT GLASS WILL CAUSE BURNS.
DO NOT TOUCH GLASS UNTIL COOLED.
NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO TOUCH GLASS.

Safe Wood-Burning Practices
When using your wood burning appliance, follow these
guidelines for safe operation:
Keep combustible items, like curtains, furniture, news-
papers, and books, away from your appliance.
Only use newspaper, dry kindling and all-natural or
organic fire starters. Never start a fire with gasoline,
2
kerosene, or charcoal starter.
Do not burn wet or green (unseasoned) wood.
Many wax and sawdust logs are made for open hearth
fireplaces only. Check your wood stove or fireplace
operating instructions operating instructions before
using artificial logs.
If you use manufactured logs, choose those made from
100 percent compressed sawdust.
Build hot fires. For most appliances, a smoldering fire
is not safe or efficient.
Keep the doors of your wood-burning appliance closed
unless loading or stoking the live fire. Harmful chemi-
cals, like carbon monoxide, can be released into your
home.
Regularly remove ashes into a covered, metal con-
tainer. Store the container outdoors on a non combus-
tible surface.
Keep a fire extinguisher handy.
Do not burn:
1. Garbage
2. Lawn clippings or yard waste
3. Materials containing rubber, including tires
4. Materials containing plastic
5. Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners, or
asphalt products
6. Materials containing asbestos
7. Construction or demolition debris
8. Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood
9. Manure or animal remains
10. Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water
saturated materials
11. Unseasoned wood
12. Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or par-
ticleboard. The prohibition against burning these
materials does not prohibit the use of fire start-
ers made from paper, cardboard, saw dust, wax
and similar substances for the purpose of starting
a fire in an affected wood heater. Burning these
materials may result in release of toxic fumes or
render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.
